History

---

The youngest of Nathaniel Malveaux’s children, Gabriel has a comparatively easy life in an often difficult family. Caroline was the eldest with all of the expectations and responsibilities that entailed. Luke, as the oldest boy, was the presumed heir and future head of the family. Westley was the overlooked middle child and perennial fuck-up who’d never measure up to his older brother and sister. Gabriel, though, got to be the baby. Caroline and Luke doted on him. Westley felt like he didn’t need to measure up around the younger boy. Gabriel’s parents didn’t expect less of him so much as they expected it later, and later never seemed to roll around to “now.” As a consequence, Gabriel grew up under few expectations and was very close to his siblings and cousins, as well as (since the 2010s) his debilitated and oft-ignored grandmother. Gabriel saw little of the family’s worst sins and excesses. He probably had the most normal, if not happy, childhood of any of the current Malveauxes, even if his parents were a little neglectful.

As of 2015, Gabriel is a senior at Berchmans Academy in Baton Rouge. Bright, athletically gifted, and scandal-free, several Ivy League schools are actively pursuing him. Gabriel is considering his options and wants to do some manner of volunteer or non-profit work when he graduates college: he’s strongly considering the Peace Corps. People who know the Malveauxes, though, suspect that his path was laid out shortly after his birth. His father is thought to already be laying a path into politics for him (scandal-free and easily likable boy that he is), while Orson eyes the possibility of another man of the cloth (for the same reasons). Probably the only reason his parents and uncles haven’t laid out his path in life for him stringently is because they’re waiting to see how things pan out with his siblings and cousins, at which point they can insert Gabriel wherever he would be most useful. Ultimately, he is a spare cog in his family’s plans. It remains to be seen how he will respond when he learns this fact. His father and uncle, certainly, expect him to simply obey.

Though Gabriel goes to school in Baton Rouge where the family makes their home, he frequently visits New Orleans for social functions and to spend time with his Big Easy-dwelling siblings. He isn’t prone to frivolous spending as a rule, though he enjoys fine things made to last, such as his expensive sports car. He’s been dating his current girlfriend, Linda Fisher, since their freshman year. She’s a sweet and well-behaved girl from a middle-class family who gets good grades and has with no particular gifts or social connections of note. Gabriel’s family members haven’t yet had the heart to tell him that he has no future with her.

In the end, for all their lives of affluence and luxury, a Malveaux’s only future is the one written by their family.
